The Platinum President Fountain Pen is slightly larger than the 3776 Century, offering you a comfortable grip as well as their proprietary “Slip & Seal” Mechanism which prevents the pen from drying out, even when not being used daily.

In the 1960s, when the Japanese economy took off, inexpensive and practical fountain pens could no longer satisfy the growing desire of customers for fine writing instruments. To enhance the value and collectability of fountain pens, Platinum decided to create a pen nib made of gold. After three years of trial and error, Platinum finally launched its first fountain pen with a 18k gold nib – Platinum 18 (プラチナ 18) in 1962. It was a great success and Platinum 18 became the perfect choice as a luxurious gift pen. Since then, other Japanese companies followed Platinum’s footstep to produce pens with 18k and then even 21k, 22k and 23k gold nibs.

Today, the Platinum 18 is no longer produced anymore, but you may look towards the Platinum President Fountain Pen for an excellent 18k gold nib pen.

Platinum is a prestigious Japanese pen brand recognized for its exceptional craftsmanship and innovation. Founded in 1919 by Shunichi Nakata in Tokyo, Japan, this beloved pen company was initially named Nakaya Seisakusho, which means “manufacturer” and later renamed as Platinum Pen Company in 1928. Under Shunichi Nakata’s visionary leadership, Platinum became a pioneer in the manufacture and trading of fine writing instruments in areas ranging from introducing the catalogue ordering system, producing the first iridium tipped steel nib and the first platinum nibs, to inventing the first cartridge filled system and the “slip and seal” mechanism to prevent ink from drying out in the pen.

To the present day, Platinum remains dedicated to its quest for innovation to create “the ideal fountain pen” that combines timeless elegance with cutting-edge technology. One of their most notable creations is the 3776, which has several renditions featuring unique crafting techniques and materials, a true classic for any pen lover!
